Celebrity Social Media Celebrity Social Media, October 4, 2024 Glamour made an excellent choice with this cover – the mothers mothering etc. I wonder how this exact group was chosen – Mama Tina and Donna Kelce have pretty big pop culture profiles themselves, and both had careers outside of entertainment (Donna was a commercial banker, Ms. Tina owned a salon).

Style Intro for April 17, 2024 Dear Gossips, “Denim on denim on denim on denim” is what Beyoncé is showing us in her latest Instagram post. This, after all, is the dominant fabric of act ii and, given how organised Beyoncé usually is, these fits were probably sourced weeks if not months in advance which, as By Lainey • Apr 17, 2024 09:05 am
Music Intro for April 3, 2024 Dear Gossips, There was a rumour that started last weekend, after Beyoncé released COWBOY CARTER, that she would soon be announcing a tour.

Gorgessity Headpieces, Feathers, and Drama at the Wearable Art Gala Beyoncé was at the WACO Theatre Wearable Art Gala on Saturday and she was the main event, as she always is. She is selective about her appearances, as we know. And her connection to this party, of course, is her mother, Miss Tina. And together they have made the Wearable By Lainey • Oct 24, 2022 12:18 pm

Chinese Squawking Chicken Miss Tina “annoys” her Beyoncé Beyoncé is known for locking things down, the ultimate control freak. With one exception: her ma, Miss Tina Lawson. As we’ve seen through the years, on Instagram really, Miss Tina does what she wants– because she hasn’t signed an NDA and likely doesn’t have to clear sh-t By Lainey • Jun 27, 2019 10:32 am
Beyoncé Intro for August 13, 2018 Dear Gossips, We are not talking today about Meghan Markle’s father. Because there’s nothing new to say. It’s the same, my views on it have not changed: there is nothing loving about repeatedly harassing your child in the media. Did you know there was actually a contact By Lainey • Aug 13, 2018 08:30 am

Beyoncé Miss Tina is all of us Right up until last Thursday night, I was still trying to get tickets to Beychella Round Two. My friend, also named Kathleen, can usually get access to tickets to exclusive things. She works music festivals a lot so naively, we thought we had a shot. We were going to drain By Kathleen • Apr 23, 2018 02:44 pm
Music Beyoncé: more dates, more photos The last time we saw Beyoncé was on the weekend, at the Wearable Art Gala to receive a reward but, really, to honour Miss Tina. There were a couple of low-quality fan videos updated to social media of Beyoncé that night. But no proper photos. And, please note, there was By Lainey • Mar 21, 2018 03:47 pm
Baby and Bump Obsession Beyoncé’s captions Beyoncé, as we know, does not explain. There has been no true Beyoncé interview in years. She is extremely selective about when she speaks. Even on social media, Beyoncé gives us very little in the way of description. But this weekend, Beyoncé gave us some words. The words were in By Lainey • May 01, 2017 01:31 pm
